OneSpan Authentication Server can be configured to monitor certain system events as they are written to the audit file. Filters must be defined to specify which events to monitor (see Filters). One or more targets must be specified to which messages are sent when the monitored event occurs (see Targets).
Click Enable System Monitoring to enable system monitoring on your OneSpan Authentication Server instance. Then use the Monitoring > Filters tab and the Monitoring > Targets tab to define your SNMP filters and targets.
Filters
You must have at least one target configured, before you can add a filter (see Targets).
In the Monitoring > Filters tab, click Add to create a new filter via the Filter Details dialog.
